The higher vig is because the tournaments take a long time to play (you get more chips, longer levels etc). If there was a demand for a lower vig shorter tournament I am pretty sure it would be spread.

That's a good point, but I probably used a bad example. That was for a 9pm tourney last Wednesday that only had fifteen minute blinds. They only allow so many rounds before they cut it off (eight maybe?) and award first place to the person with the most chips. Doh! I didn't realize it was a turbo format, but it worked out okay. If I remember right, the starting chip amount was $9,000.
I will have to check and see if the breakdown is the same for the 7pm Sunday night one. It usually has 4-8 tables and 20-minute rounds.
